Special Operations Forces Selection PT Preparation 10.1.2017

SOF Selection PT Preparation

Special Operations Forces Selection PT Preparation 10.1.2017

The best way to start our Sunday before the sun comes up is our Sunday Ruck. Grab your training partner (for me a bulldog) and hit the trail. A little warm-up and a good long (8-mile) rucksack march. As always be sure to stay hydrated during the ruck march. It should be a habit that will carry over to Selection and training afterward.

Becoming dehydrated during a long training event such as a ruck march or long-range movement is a guarantee for bigger problems and failure, keep sipping on the water during the march.

Training:

Warm up

2 x 20 Pushups

2 x 20 Sit-ups

8-mile rucksack march over varied terrain. Try to keep your pace better than the standard (120 minutes). And mark your times in your workout log book.

Stretch well after completion
